Hi Danny. So sorry to hear what you’ve been through. How about Al Anon (AA) ? Also use Google to seek advice for rape victims, there may be a support phone line. These feelings must be so hard to manage on your own but in my experience things never get any better in the long run until you face up to...

Hey Em, thanks for the advice. I’ve booked myself in for a couple of little treatments! Keep us posted on everything. You are very brave and good at taking action. Not many people are as pro active as that! Don’t worry about not working, so many people haven’t worked for years. Obviously you like to...

Hey Try to focus on things you can control such as getting a new job so that you can eventually buy your own home if that’s important to you.

Hi Just wanted to say I’m really sorry and I don’t know what else to say because the grief must be unbearable a lot of the time. Have you had counselling? Your feelings are not insignificant at all.

The communities seem to offer you something really positive in terms of feeling valued, keeping you busy, having somewhere you b...

This is really sad, I’m so sorry about your wife’s problems which are affecting you. She obviously does need professional help. It must be awful to hear the situations she is getting into, but it is not your fault. Here is the Al Anon website, could you call them? They are experts and should be able...

Oh hello, it’s been a while... (ahem not long enough but hey ho!) How have you been? Yes please do sit beside me but I can’t stay too long. I’ve been quite well, thank you for asking. I’ve made some great progress since we last spoke. You’re not looking too well though - not feeling too good? Ah yes...
